Abstract excerpt
Enteric methane emissions from ruminants represent a significant contributor to agricultural greenhouse gases, necessitating precise genetic tools to guide mitigation strategies. This study aimed to identify genomic regions and estimate heritability parameters associated with methane-related traits in cattle through an integrated meta-analytical framework. The meta-analysis of the genome-wide association studies...
